I never thought
too much about these days past until now. I was never a part of any
one geocentric tribe. I mingled with all of them because I was a
writer and wanted to know and experience as many people and things
as possible. These were extremely lean days for everyone and I was
probably trying to decide if I should continue to look for a job in
Detroit, or go live with my mother, now settled in Houston. Good
thing I left, though, because I started working for
Warner-Elektra-Atlantic in Houston on March 25, 1980. I was the
first female marketing specialist for a major record label in the
US. I got a gold record from Elektra for my work on Urban Cowboy
later that same year. Despite all my connections, I never would
have gotten a break like that in Detroit. Obviously, another
story.
